time and again I watched you walk away
though you wore a different face
the message was the same
friend, lover, family, foe
you shook your head and went
and I was left alone
I see it in your eyes each time
the wrestle to believe
I stretch my arms a little wider
and will you not to go
I know I'm an eagle
in a world of ostriches
but you could fly too
choose to embrace the heart I offer
know it wants His best
He'll catch us when we stumble
a thousand scars testify
the only unbearable thing
is if you decide not to love
as broken as I feel I won't relent
each new face holds hope
I'll consider my heart well-spent
